What version of WebTorrent?
0.98.20
What operating system and Node.js version?
Centos 7 x64, Node v6.11.3
What browser and version? (if using WebTorrent in the browser)
Opera 51.0.2776.0 (PGO)
Microsoft Edge 41.16299.15.0
What did you expect to happen?
View video in browser
What actually happened?
https://codepen.io/yciabaud/pen/XdOeWM Here is an example, it works only with the torrent file that is specified there. I substituted the links to different torrent files, not with one given example no longer works.
The video file itself must be present on the server? I read the documentation ... I do not understand what I'm doing wrong?

The torrent must be seeded by WebRTC (webtorrent) peers. Even if you find the most popular torrent in a directory, it might not be seeded by WebRTC peers at all, so it won't work.

Please read https://github.com/webtorrent/webtorrent/blob/master/docs/faq.md#troubleshooting
